하수처리장 현황은 2005년을 기준으로 271개소이며 2006년에는 23개소(526.1천톤/일)가 완공되어 총 294개소(22백만톤/일)의 하수처리장이 운영중에 있다. 또한 2006년내에 완공예정인 처리장은 68개소(693.5천톤/일)로서 2007년도에는 총 362개소(23,087천톤/일)로 예상하고 있다. 하수처리수를 년간으로 환산하면 약 84억톤 정도이며 이는 전체 수자원이용량 331억톤의 25%에 해당하는 수치이며, 농업용수이용량인 158억톤의 53%를 차지하는 규모이다. 이처럼 매년 $5{\sim}7%$씩 하수처리수가 늘어나고 있으며 더욱이 대부분 기존의 관개용 수리시설에 인접하여 방류되어 직 간접적으로 재이용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 농업기반시설에 인접한 하수처리수가 얼마큼 농업에 영향을 주고 있는지를 파악하기 위해 GIS 기법을 이용하여 하수처리장으로부터 일정한 거리에 인접하거나 방류지점 하류에 위치한 관개용 수리시설을 찾아내어 재이용 관리지역으로 선정하였고 현장조사를 실시하여 재이용정보를 DB로 구축하였다. 연구결과 전국 271개소 하수처리장중 관개용 수리시설보다 상류측에 있으면서 반경 1.5km 이내에 위치한 하수처리장은 127개소로 나타났으며 현장조사결과 많은 지역에서 하수처리수를 농업용으로 직접 또는 간접적으로 이용하고 있었다. 이처럼 주변상황으로 인해 하수처리수를 농촌용수로 이용할 수밖에 없는 지역이 발생하고 있고 앞으로도 하수처리장이 계속 증설되고 있는 한 기존의 농업수리시설물은 하수처리수의 영향이 더욱 커질 것으로 판단되므로 하수처리장 주변의 농업기반시설에 대한 지속적인 관리가 필요하다.의(2005년 10월 19일)에서는 농업용수 10% 절약 대책과 유역단위의 통합적 물 관리를 요구하게 되었다. 우리나라는 현실적으로 매년 홍수 피해가 발생하고 있지만, 다른 한편 인구밀도가 높고 1인당 가용 수자원이 상대적으로 적기 때문에 국지적 물 부족 문제를 경험하고 있다. 최근 국제적으로도 농업용수의 물 낭비 최소화와 절약 노력 및 타 분야 물 수요 증대에 대한 대응 능력 제고가 매우 중요한 과제로 부각되고 있다. 2006년 3월 멕시코에서 개최된 제4차 세계 물 포럼에서 국제 강 네트워크는 "세계 물 위기의 주범은 농경지", "농민들은 모든 물 위기 논의에서 핵심"이라고 주장하고, 전 프랑스 총리 미셀 로카르는 "...관개시설에 큰 문제점이 있고 덜 조방적 농업을 하도록 농민들을 설득해야 한다. 이는 전체 농경법을 바꾸는 문제..."(segye.com, 2006. 3. 19)라고 주장하는 등 세계 물 문제 해결을 위해서는 농업용수의 효율적 이용 관리가 중요함을 강조하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 국내외 여건 및 정책 환경 변화에 적극적으로 대처하고 물 분쟁에 따른 갈등해소 전략 수립과 효율적인 물 배분 및 이용을 위한 기초연구로서 농업용수 수리권과 관련된 법 및 제도를 분석하였다.. 삼요소의 시용 시험결과 그 적량은 10a당 질소 10kg, 인산 5kg, 및 가리 6kg 정도였으며 질소는 8kg 이상의 경우에는 분시할수록 비효가 높았으며 특히 벼의 후기 중점시비에 의하여 1수영화수와 결실율의 증대가 크게 이루어졌다. 3. 파종기와 파종량에 관한 시험결과는 공시품종선단의 파종적기는 4월 25일부터 5월 10일경까지 인데 이 기간중 일찍 파종하는 경우에 파종적

In literature, empirical studies investigating how stress affects HRQOL (health related quality of life) through physical activities are insufficient. In this sense, on the basis of KNHANES dataset for 2008 ~ 2013, we conducted an empirical study. Empirical results revealed that in the male group with stress experience, HRQOL was significantly influenced by age, household income, education, occupation, physical activity level. To do so, we adapt the chi-square analysis and the logistic regression analysis. Meanwhile, in the stress non-experience group, the low level activity has lower HRQOL than the high level activity(male: OR=1.15 p<0.001, female: OR=1.18 p<0.001). In the stress experience group, the male has the same pattern of effect compared to the stress non-experience group(OR=1.79 p<0.01). However, in the female, the low level activity has the higher HRQOL than the high level activity(OR=1.18 p<0.05). Therefore, we confirmed that physical activity has a different effect on HRQOL through stress experience.

In this paper, development of mobile robot for the inspection of hull surface was mentioned. In the sea, it is difficult to proceed with the visual inspection of hull side and thus mobile robot for checking the status could be run with strap-on its surface. To do this, permanent magnet module to generate magnetic force between hull surface and mobile robot, and structure to minimize variance of the force under curvature circumstance were considered on the design. Based on the design, mobile robot with four NdFeB, four driving wheels and image aquisition module was applied. Load experiment to check the adhesive force, slip test during stop state and driving test to measure driving speed were executed. From the experiments 13 Kgf adhesive force was obtained and slip was not happened until 8 Kgf load on the inclined plate. Driving speed of mobile robot was measured at 0.82 m/s corresponding to 6.5 ampere. We confirmed the effectiveness of developed mobile robot by experiments to check its characteristics.

Objectives : To observe the effect of acupuncture treatment on Digital Infrared Thermographic Imaging(DITI) in frozen shoulder patients. Methods : 17 voluntary patients received acupuncture treatment on LI15, TE14, GB21 and Master Dong's acupuncture points, Shin-gwan and Gyun-joong, twice a week for 4 weeks. The patients were instructed to practice self exercise during their daily lives. Evaluations were made before treatment, after 1 week of treatment, after 2 weeks, 3 weeks and after 4 weeks of treatment. Constant Shoulder Assessment(CSA), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI), Range of Motion(ROM) and the patient's satisfaction concerning the treatment was measured by Visual Analogue Scale(VAS). DITI was measured before treatment and after 4weeks of treatment. The obtained data was analyzed. Results : CSA, SPADI, VAS, adduction and extension showed significant(p<0.05) improvement. Abduction and flexion both improved after 4 weeks of treatment, but the improvement was statistically insignificant(p>0.05). DITI showed improvement but the improvement was insignificant(p>0.05). Conclusion : 4 weeks of acupuncture treatment significantly improved CSA, SPADI, VAS, adduction and extension in frozen shoulder patients(p<0.05). The improvement of abduction and flexion after 4 weeks of acupuncture treatment was insignificant(p>0.05). DITI results improved after 4 weeks of acupuncture treatment. But the change of thermal difference was insignificant(p>0.05).

This study was carried out to evaluate geochemical properties for stream sediments, surrounding soils, sludge collected in the drainage pipe of leachate and waters (stream water, groundwater, leachate) around the Pungam Landfill in Gwangju city. The stream sediments don't show any systematic trend of contents from upstream to downstream. The most enriched major element in the stream sediments is Fe (up to 7.08wt.% in GJ-23). Though stream sediment GJ-23 and GJ-34 were enriched by some heavy metals (eg. As, Cu, Zn), they do not constitute serious problems for environment consideration. The concentration of Fe (35.lwt.%) and As (38ppm) are significantly high in the GJ-8, which is soil specimen adjacent to leachate reservoir. The sludge (GJ-7) shows very high concentrations of As, Mn, Cr, Pb. In particular, the Cr content is 45.6 ppm, which exceeds the permitted level. The leachate is characterized by high TDS (2210-2470mg/L) and high electric conductivity (468, 530ms/cm), and enriched in both cation (Na, K) and anion (HCO$_3$). The leachate(PK-3) had a relatively high concentration of Cl, and is plotted in Na-Cl type on the Piper's diagram. The NO$_3$-N of the groundwater and stream water exceeded the permitted levels for drinking water.

Vegetables contain high levels of nitrate, which can be converted to nitrite for reaction with secondary amines to form nitrosamines. In this study, we evaluated safety effects against nitrite and nitrosamine as well as anti-mutagenic activities of vegetable juices. To do this, the contents of nitrate, nitrite, and nitrosamines were determined in vegetable juices. The safety effects against nitrite and nitrosamine formation were also investigated under simulated human gastric conditions. The contents of nitrate and nitrite in common and organic kale and Angelica keiskei juices were 931~2,052 mg/kg and 13~82 mg/kg, respectively. However, seven kinds of nitrosamines were not detected in the vegetables juices. The nitrate content decreased when vegetable juices were digested under simulated human gastric conditions. Nitrosamine (N-nitrosodimethylamine) formation under simulated human gastric conditions was inhibited by addition of vegetable juices. In addition, vegetable juices, especially organically cultivated juices, showed anti-mutagenic effects in a Salmonella assay system. These results suggest that organically cultivated vegetable juices are a promising health-promoting source.

Objectives: We attempted to study sleep habits and insomnia-associated factors in Korean rural adult population. Methods : In 1,441 adult subjects of three rural communities selected by cluster sampling, we administered an epidemiologic survey using questionnaire methods from July 14, 1996 to July 28, 1996. Results : 1) Mean sleep latency and mean time to sleep again after awakening during nocturnal sleep were longer in females than in males. Females suffered more frequently from insomnia symptom, awakening during nocturnal sleep. morning headache, dysphoric mood in the morning, and the feeling of 'not refreshed' on waking-up than males. 2) The older age group (defined as those older than 65 years) was found to have earlier bed-time, longer sleep latency, more frequent nocturia, longer time to sleep again after awakening during nocturnal sleep, and more frequent insomnia symptom. 3) The presence of insomnia symptom more than once a week was significantly associated with suffering from physical illness, being divorced-separated-widowed, frequently feeling depressed, nocturia, or low education level. 4) In multiple logistic regression analysis, old age, being female, low education level, frequently feeling depressed, and nocturia were independently associated with the presence of insomnia symptom more than once a week. Conclusion : We conclude that, in a Korean rural adult population, insomnia symptom increases with age and females usually suffer more from insomnia symptom than males. In addition, low education level, feeling depressed mood frequently, and nocturia are found to be significantly associated independently with the presence of insomnia symptom more than once a week.

To use as an anode material of lithium secondary battery, graphite-silicon composite powders are prepared by ball-milling with silicon nanoparticles (average diameter 100 nm, 0~50 wt%) and graphite powder (average diameter $15{\mu}m$) and their electrochemical properties are examined. As the silicon content increases, the graphite becomes smaller by the ball-milling and amorphous phase appears whereas the silicon do not suffer the change of nanocrystalline phases and embeds within the amorphous phase of graphite. Cyclic voltammetry at low scan rate reveals that typical oxidation peaks of graphite and silicon appear at 0.2~0.35 and 0.55~0.6 V, respectively, with higher reversibility for repeated cycles. In contrast, the high-scan-rate redox behavior is very irreversible for repeated cycles. High irreversible capacity is exhibited in the initial charging-discharging cycles, but it diminishes as the cycle number increases. The saturated discharge capacity achieves about 485 mAh $g^{-1}$ at 50th cycle for the composite of Si 20 wt%. This is due to the formation of amorphous graphite morphology by the adequate composition (C:Si=8:2 w/w), which efficiently buffers the volume change during alloying/dealloying between silicon and lithium.

It is obvious that adequate nutrition is essential for growth and development of school children, and many elementary schools in this country have already practiced it. Therefore, it would seem apparent that the school feeding program would have a significant effect on the growth and development of school children. This paper presents a two-year experimental school-feeding program from 1973 to 1974, and attempts to evaluate its effects by before-and-after nutrition surveys conducted in two elementary schools, one experimental and the other as a control. The two schools are both located in the same county (Yongin-Kun, Kyunggi-Do), and the families of their students are presumed to share the same socio-economic level. To assess the effect of school-feeding, we measured height, weight, chest circumference and grasping power. Physical examination was done foresigns of nutritional deficiency. A stool examination for parasites and blood examinations for hemoglobin, hematocrit and serum protein were included. Analyses were done for 150 students selected randomly at the beginning of the program. These students attended the school throughout the program period. Results are as follows: 1. The amount of increase of height, weight, chest cirumference and grasping power were greater in the experimental school than in the control school, but the differences are not statistically significant. 2. Signs of vitamin deficiency decreased in both experimental and control schools during the two-year program period. 3. At the time of the 1974 post-survey, values of Hb. & Hct. revealed no significant differences between the two schools, but serum protein level was a little higher than that of general Korean rural children of the same age. 4. Infestation rate of parasites had increased in both schools during the two-year program period. 5. Each student of the two schools was classified into three major classes, according to the level of economic condition of his or her parents, namely higher, middle and lower. The results of each class of the experimental school was compared with that of the corresponding class of the control school, expecting the relative magnitude of change largest in the lower economic class of the experimental school. However, change was greatest in the middle class, still not being statistically significant. Finally, the authors concluded that the two-year period for such a program is not sufficiently long for its beneficial effects to be demonstrated and measured. As long as the growth and development of children are concerned, planning with a more distant perspective is required, as well as the development of new methods of evaluation.
